Reduce size of text_field on a form in rails and bootstrap

Question

I'm newbie and I'm developing an app with rails and bootstrap. I'm using this to generate a field on a form:

<%= d.text_field :email, :placeholder => "email" %>
<%= text_field_tag 'doctor[name][]', nil, :placeholder => "name" %>

and it works perfectly but I want to resize the height of it. I googled and I didn't found any good answer that fits.

Does anyone faced this issue?

Answer 1

If you're using bootstrap v2, you should add this:

<%= d.text_field :email, :placeholder => "email", :class => "span5" %>

Note that the number in span class is referred to the size that you want to put.

If you're using this new bootstrap (v3 rc), you should check this page
